Problems to be solved by the invention

  The present invention is an air collision in the direction of travel that increases to the square of the speed in a cube such as a wind turbine or a solar power generation system that uses natural air flow, which is influenced by the climate, and that is operated by a human to move. This is related to the technology for using drag conditions (air flow). An air flow circuit is formed in the moving body so that the energy of air flow can be used for driving generators and auxiliaries. The challenge is to improve the energy-saving and low-pollution function of hybrid and electric vehicle systems that operate electric generators and auxiliary machines by rotating torque to store the generated electricity in the battery and use the electric power to drive in the city etc. And

  The present invention uses a vehicle body of a moving body to form an air flow circuit for driving a wind power generator and supercharging, and to introduce low-pressure flow air to the generator drive fan section so as to reduce resistance and noise. Air flow circuit with air intake at the ceiling and floor of the vehicle and the front area on both sides of the vehicle body and an exhaust at the rear of the flow path, and an air circuit that can always generate and store electricity by air flow during travel It is necessary for the hybrid system to reduce the load on the engine by reducing the burden on the auxiliary equipment used in the generator and compressor by increasing the engine efficiency by supercharging and power generation with wind power that is configured and running The purpose is to disclose a vehicle energy-saving and low-pollution technology that is suitable for environmental protection and energy-saving by widening the range of electric power running by running wind power while storing electricity.

Means for solving the problem

  As a means for solving the above-mentioned problems, the first invention is a part of the air flow utilizing the physical flow conditions of the air fluid generated by the collision phenomenon of the air and the front surface of the vehicle body, which is always generated while a moving body such as an automobile is traveling. This is a supercharging system that uses natural wind power while driving by operating a rotary drive unit connected to the fan by installing a rotary unit with a radial fan in the circuit by constructing a low-pressure air flow circuit It is in the configuration of a wind power system using collision air that generates power and charges by generating power by improving the efficiency of the engine and generating rotational power.

  The second aspect of the invention is that the fan part is formed with a wide axial length as a means to effectively supply a low-pressure air flow to the generator driving fan part to obtain the rotational torque of the generator, and the air outlets for this are also formed with a wide alignment. In addition, the long axis fan and the flat throttle-like air flow circuit adapted to the long axis fan and the air outlet are formed so as to obtain rotational torque even in low-pressure jet air.

  In the third invention, in the first and second power generation and storage systems using the air flow caused by the collision with the vehicle body during traveling, the three-dimensional projection area is particularly large and the air resistance is large in order to increase the electric traveling time and distance by the hybrid system. As a means to reduce energy consumption of large trucks and buses using the car body and diesel engine, and to reduce the discharge of harmful ultrafine powder soot, the air flow circuit increases the flow rate and supplies low-temperature air for supercharging to increase charging efficiency and supercharging By reducing the load and exhaust pressure resistance of the machine and increasing the engine output and reducing the load, the heat efficiency is improved and the pollution of the exhaust gas is reduced.

  The fourth aspect of the invention is to provide an air flow circuit under the ceiling or floor as a means of configuring the formation of an air flow circuit for utilizing collision air in an automobile where the design of the vehicle body is important, with less damage to the design. The cross section of the circuit is gradually reduced while the air intake opening is expanded to reach the rotating fan section at the rear of the circuit, the air flow speed is increased, and a rotating fan section is provided at the rear of the circuit so that it can be used as kinetic energy. The purpose of the circuit is to construct the air release circuit portion in a negative pressure at a plurality of locations for different purposes.

The fifth aspect of the invention is a vehicle body front portion as a method for increasing the electric power storage and supply means that is indispensable for heating and cooling, auxiliary power, and mileage extension, which are also necessary for electric vehicles running on fuel cells and lithium batteries. The electric vehicle which introduced air into the air flow circuit constructed on the underside of the vehicle body and converted it into kinetic energy by the throttle action of the circuit to drive the fan for power generation. The feature is that the air circuit of the wind power generation system is built in the lower part of the car body.

A lot of research and development are competing for automobile technology and its energy-saving and low-pollution, and today's automobile society is created. Among them, the hybrid system that approaches the purpose of energy-saving and low-pollution using battery power is excellent. As is well known, the development of energy-saving and low-pollution technology requires further technological development efforts.

  Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. 1, 2, and 3 will be described by replacing the moving body with an automobile body as a means for explaining the state and action of the moving body according to the present invention due to collision with the atmosphere, and displaying the air flow with arrow lines. The use of natural wind power, as is known from Dutch windmills, uses natural wind power to rotate windmills and use them for pumping and pulverization by rotating power. It is useful for environmental conservation, but it cannot be used when the wind is weak.

  This technology uses the basics of the physics that the collision condition between the air and the car body is always configured if the three-dimensional car body is artificially moved and moved even in air-free air conditions regardless of the climate and weather. A radial long axis in which an air flow 2 is arranged in the flow circuit to increase the flow velocity 3 according to the circuit shape and to collect and rectify changes in pressure and flow caused by air colliding with the vehicle body 1 and to use the flow. This is a mechanism in which the generator 5 is operated by the collision of the fan 4 and the rotation of the fan shaft.

The air circuit intake 6 for the collision air is mainly configured in the upper region 8 and the floor surface of the front portion 7, and the air circuit configured in the ceiling region 9 and the lower floor surface is a circuit as the air flow proceeds to the fan portion 4. The rear area 10 of the fan has an open negative pressure circuit structure with low air resistance.

As shown in FIG. 2, the radial fan, the generator, and the air circuit have a shaft length structure as means for improving the rotational torque, and an air outlet 11 for the shaft is widely formed. The generator 5 is driven by the fan shaft 12, and the other circuit 14 is configured as a circuit that can supply another air such as for supercharging.

The air flow that collides with the traveling front of the automobile is an air flow circuit that is formed on the ceiling with the spoiler portion 16 provided on the front 15 having an inclination angle as the upper portion of the air intake and has a circuit cross-sectional area and a structure. An air flow with increased kinetic energy collides with the shaft length fan 17 provided in the shaft 2, and is converted into a rotational torque to drive the generator shaft and be released from the open circuit 10 in the rear area of the fan.

The problem of air collision resistance that cannot be avoided when driving in any design is particularly important for energy saving and low pollution of vehicles mainly driving large vehicles such as trucks and buses with large front projection area, commercial vehicles and taxis. It is a problem and wind resistance cannot be overlooked. In other words, the amount of fuel consumed for traveling is determined by the engine load and time, and the increase in fuel consumption results in an increase in CO2 emissions that cause global warming. Is an issue for the whole of humankind that seeks a low-carbon society and a low-pollution society. In particular, in countries where automobiles are heavily used, it is necessary to urgently improve and resolve it because of its serious responsibility.

  In the present invention, the physical collision condition of the fluid inevitably generated by the correlation between the atmosphere (air) and the three-dimensional automobile moving (running) in the atmosphere is utilized by the construction of a simple air flow circuit to increase the square of the speed. The negative phenomenon of air resistance is to improve the engine efficiency and achieve the load by wind power conversion technology by generating power or supercharging by using the drag force of wind during driving.

Hereinafter, the advantages of the air flow caused by the collision between the natural atmosphere (air) and the moving body, the power conversion based on the use thereof, and the power generation and supercharging methods will be described as an automobile.

The air that is the main role of the present invention exists infinitely and is related to our survival, and automobiles have been improved until this century and have become indispensable to human life culture. This automatic army is driven by various types of prime movers (engines and motors), and the engines are powered by the combustion reaction and heat conversion of fuel mainly made from finite underground crude oil and plants. Carbon dioxide, harmful fine powder soot, etc., which are one of the causes, are discharged as the load increases. To reduce this, it is effective to reduce the engine load.

As shown in Fig. 4, the resistance factor when driving a car is the rolling resistance of the tire and the collision resistance with the wind, and it is known that the resistance of the wind due to the increase in speed is large, but the countermeasure is unavoidable in the design. It has been praised and has a uniform design that emphasizes comfort and drivability. Therefore, in order to save fuel consumption and exhaust gas, it is effective to move at a speed with low wind resistance, but speed is given priority in human society that emphasizes time, so a contradiction occurs, and in a time-oriented society, the speed of the moving object is high. Conversion is still a demand.

Therefore, it is possible to improve the engine thermal efficiency and reduce the load on the auxiliary equipment by applying the collision condition with the wind inevitably generated when traveling at high speed, generating power using natural energy wind power, and increasing the charging efficiency by supercharging at low temperature. The invention is useful for improving the target engine output with a simple configuration, and obtains the generated power storage energy from wind power other than the engine and stores it in the sub storage battery to increase the power holding capacity of the automobile, and the auxiliary equipment for refrigeration and cooling The action that can be used for operation and reduce the load of the engine can achieve the purpose of energy saving and low pollution, and the effect is great.

The effect of air supercharging required for the engine as the traveling speed increases is achieved by using the air circuit, and the problems caused by the turbocharging method during high speed traveling are improved.

The configuration of the air circuit unit can be provided at multiple locations with any air circuit without damaging the projected area and design of the car if the horizontal surface of the top of the car body or the lower under cover is used as one surface of the circuit. Therefore, if each circuit is configured for each purpose, convenience and effect are improved, and the mileage and determination of the electric vehicle can be improved. In this description, the radial fan is used as the rotational fan, but other fans can be used as the nozzles.

This technology for constructing an air circuit for power generation by matching the long axis fan with a flat air circuit in the ceiling area and floor of the car body without changing the car body design is easy to implement and has been used in the past. It has been achieved by the use and system of fluidized air that is made up of wind power generation and supercharging devices that make use of physical conditions due to the collision phenomenon between the moving body and air that has not moved. There are great effects that are useful for energy saving of the engine and preservation of the global environment.
